Assault Rifles

Are assault rifles your thing? Do you own one? I have a M1 Carbine, which is the exact same thing I had in the Army. I also have a sixty round (my computer wont let me type the number sixty???) clip, a 30 round clip, and a standard 10 round clip. Do you own a rifle that would be considered an assault rifle?

Why sell things at gun shows that are against the law to use?

How 'bout a .357 Magnum?

I would like thoughts and opinions on the .357 magnum load and its utility as a long-gun round in addition to its role as a revolver load.

    "Supreme Court says Americans have right to guns"

    The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that Americans have a right to own guns for self-defense in their homes, the justices' first major pronouncement on gun rights in U.S. history.

    The court's 5-4 ruling struck down the District of Columbia's 32-year-old ban on handguns as incompatible with gun rights under the Second Amendment. The decision went further than even the Bush administration wanted, but probably leaves most firearms restrictions intact.

    The court had not conclusively interpreted the Second Amendment since its ratification in 1791. The amendment reads: "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."

    The basic issue for the justices was whether the amendment protects an individual's right to own guns no matter what, or whether that right is somehow tied to service in a state militia.

    Writing for the majority, Justice Antonin Scalia said that an individual right to bear arms is supported by "the historical narrative" both before and after the Second Amendment was adopted.

    The Constitution does not permit "the absolute prohibition of handguns held and used for self-defense in the home," Scalia said. The court also struck down Washington's requirement that firearms be equipped with trigger locks or kept disassembled, but left intact the licensing of guns.

    Scalia noted that the handgun is Americans' preferred weapon of self-defense in part because "it can be pointed at a burglar with one hand while the other hand dials the police."

    (I prefer to shoot with two hands, then call the police.)

    Sandy Froman is the past president of the National Rifle Association of America,

    Excerpt:

    One question that has not gotten much attention, however, asks if Obama supports legislation to, “ban the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns.” His one-word answer—uncommonly direct and lacking the flowery eloquence we’ve come to expect from him—was “Yes.”
